DaveP, I have a better idea. Describe your symptoms in detail and we will diagnose you!  Free of charge!

Isn't this the usual process?

I have a pain at the front of my right hip, and in my right upper thigh/groin area. They might be part of the same thing, or they might be unrelated. It hurts when I walk. Or, roll over in bed. It's OK when sitting down, or riding a stationary bike. It is typically worst just getting up in the morning, and after sitting down for a long time.

Go.

Note, "Diagnosis: Old" is not an acceptable response. Even if true.

 

I have to plug my 920 into my computer to receive the device firmware updates.  Yours does this via bluetooth/wifi?

I’ve never plugged in my watch to my computer. When there’s an update it tells me when I select an activity that an update is available. I install, watch restarts and off I go. I haven’t had any glitches. I have the 630. I don’t have WiFi turned on, only Bluetooth.

 

Hmm! I'll have to check when I get home. In that case, I assume - "Diagnosis: Lopsided".

When your hip(s) is out of alignment, they are crooked when you lie on your back. A trained eye can see it instantly. My doc once called me a crumpled up piece of paper mine were so bad. Eventually, assuming tha's what it is, you learn how to readjust them yourself.

I'm going with sports hernia. Don't go to a chiropractor for that.

Based on the orthopedic team of Dr. Google and Dr. B&B, I'm settling on two diagnoses.

This seems like a likely explanation for the groin portion. It feels like it's in the muscle. I've had strains in the lower ab/groin area a few times before; it didn't usually stop me from running, but it is annoying AF for a long time.

The hip portion seems more in the joint or tendon; I'm going with rectus femoris tendonitis.

There. Now I can proceed with the targeted treatment plan of what I do for every injury: (1) rest it for a while till hopefully it goes away on its own, and/or (2) run through it in pain.

Physical Tests

To help determine whether you have a sports hernia, your doctor will likely ask you to do a sit-up or flex your trunk against resistance. If you have a sports hernia, these tests will be painful.

What I find interesting is that resting it has not provided any improvements for you.  I thought you mentioned it was still bothering you.  Does it at least feel better?

Not appreciably. Maybe means I should see someone. Or maybe means it will just take a long time, as these things sometimes do.
